A WP:PROMO page on an unremarkable private business. Does not meet WP:NCORP; significant RS coverage not found. Sourcing is in passing, routine notices and / or WP:SPIP.

Weak Delete - Wow. I am really on the fence with this once as it is a very popular company. However, the majority of the references (with the exception of [https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/capitalbusiness/customink-goes-from-size-s-to-xxl/2014/05/23/7e8e393a-e1bd-11e3-810f-764fe508b82d_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.f7648b8557bb this one]) are brief mentions, general announcements, or unreliable. Would love to vote keep, but popularity doesn't equate to notability. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:55, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
Keep since subject meets WP:NCORP, with write ups in the Washington Business Journal ([https://www.bizjournals.com/washington/news/2016/02/04/customink-buys-l-a-based-t-shirt-firm-with-large.html here]), the Washington Post ([http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/17/AR2010101702438.html here], [https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/capitalbusiness/customink-goes-from-s here], and [https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/capitalbusiness/washington-area-t-shirt-seller-goes-hollywood/2016/02 here]), The Wall Street Journal ([https://www.wsj.com/articles/DJFVW00020131112e9bcrdq8n here]), etc. It is quite deplorable that this is the handiwork of yet more kamikaze accounts but their free roaming around here is a matter of general policy. And the text is in need of some serious pruning.-The Gnome (talk) 15:58, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
Keep – Meets WP:CORPDEPTH, as per a review of sources presented in the last AfD discussion, in this AfD discussion, and in the article itself. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 14:57, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Keep The article does look a bit promotional, and could do with a bit of work; however, the Washington Post coverage seems to meet CORPDEPTH, and there are enough sources to meet NCORP, so keep. GirthSummit _(blether) 17:54, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
